Dearest Finn -
I know how much you have to do, being a labrador and all, so, I'll try to keep this short. I remember that you were the only dark yellow in the bunch, and, the first I'd ever seen of that color. It was chilly, and, I held you close to me, pulling my sweatshirt up over your tiny body. You fell asleep in my arms, and, I fell in love. I knew you were right for me and that I was right for you. A stranger summed it up when she said that we looked alike! She must have just meant that we looked like we both were missing the same thing...eachother. And, she couldn't have been more right.
You have been my constant, ever laughing, strong companion since the day we met. You've already been with me through five homes (I promise one day I'll settle down!), and, have traveled far, without a complaint or hitch. I know that no other creature will ever replace my Bruno, as my heart still aches to see his sweet face. But, you have filled my soul and life with such energy, such love, such spirit, I know, even after only sixteen months, that no matter who I meet in my life or the next, no will ever compare to you. I love you, Huckleberry.
Always......Kari
